    Aw gee thanks...
    Go ahead and eat mine though...I'm on a diet...

    You clean eating nuts kill me. So scared to mix mint with cookies. :laugh:

    Mint + chocolate = gag

    Cos science

    Now you've piqued my curiosity. I was giving you a pass on the mint Oreos but what about Thin Mints, Andes Mints, and York Peppermint Patties?

    Won't eat an Oreo. Too unhealthy. If I crave a cookie I buy a single serve organic cookie without high fructose corn syrup and other junk added to be able to make it cheaper. I go for the real thing.

    That sounds exhausting.

    They sell them in the store now?

    That's the only reason I decided to have juggernaut juniors! If I can get them (GS cookies) at the store, I can sell off the juggernaut juniors!

    lol love Oreo's and they are vegan which is awesome. every so often after dinner the five of us sit at the table and have a Oreo licking contest. So much fun the kids have a blast. We only buy Oreo's maybe once every other month. So it's a real treat when we have them. Yes they are not good for you but sometimes you just have to let your hair down and enjoy the little moments.

    LOL no. The store FRONT where the little sugar pushers are.

    I'm very sad my region apparently doesn't have the trios.

    Can confirm.

    They are tasty...in a "not really an Oreo, but if you like red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting you'll like these" kind of way

    didn't know these were a thing!!!!! Need to try them.

    And as long as we're microwaving packaged cookies...anybody nuked chewy chips ahoy for 15 seconds?? They turn into a "warm from the oven" bit of heaven...

    It will be a piece of heaven since you're going to die from using the death box

    I almost bought a pack of these yesterday but decided against it... I just have no control with the amazingness that is Oreo. I plan to have 3-4 and end when the package is gone. I feel like it is scientifically impossible to stop eating them once you start, if someone could please show me proof that it is possible I would love to see it!

    Oh and Oreos are just like people. doesn't matter what color, how stuffed, or what flavor they are, we're all amazing in our own way. The peanut butter or mint ones are the best.

    Double-stuf are my favorite. I can't have them anymore because I could eat way too many. With milk, even worse. Gotta keep the trigger foods away from me. :'( I have no control around them.

    These are out, by the way. Basically regular Oreo cream stuffed in a chocolate Oreo. They're ok.

    I feel like they were not even really trying with these. It was like a challenge to see who in the company could create a new flavor with the cookie and cream combinations they already had on-hand.

    Ingredients

    SUGAR, UNBLEACHED ENRICHED FLOUR (WHEAT FLOUR, NIACIN, REDUCED IRON, THIAMINE MONONITRATE {VITAMIN B1}, RIBOFLAVIN {VITAMIN B2}, FOLIC ACID), PALM AND/OR CANOLA OIL, COCOA (PROCESSED WITH ALKALI), HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP, CORNSTARCH, LEAVENING (BAKING SODA AND/OR CALCIUM PHOSPHATE), SALT, SOY LECITHIN, VANILLIN - AN ARTIFICIAL FLAVOR, CHOCOLATE.CONTAINS WHEAT, SOY.

    two cookies of 20 grams contain 13 grams of sugar. Honestly, I don't see anything yummy in here, and I know Oreos taste artificial and not very rich.

    I make my own Oreos. They are yummy chocolate creamy and a healthy version of the real thing. My late husband (he died young) believed that 75% of Cancer is caused by the chemicals, artificial colors and preservatives in foods including pesticides. In the medical newsletters he received from the of Obstetrics and Gynecology is a report that today they are finding very high amounts of pesticides in infant cord blood. This tells you how saturated mother's bodies are. I pay the few dollars extra for USDA certified organic. Our bodies are stressed enough as it is from environmental pollution. By eating only organic we are protecting our bodies from the potential of further irreversible damage. Personal choice.

    LOL!!

    Know how much I love oreos?

    A client brought us donuts at work and another brought us home made chocolate chip cookies and these little apple tart thingies. I reeeeeeally over did the donuts and cookies and little tart thingies. So, while deleting stuff from my pre-logged day today that I can't really eat anymore, there was no question the oreos were staying.

    I could have saved 150 calories right there if I just said no to the oreos!
